Greetings. Up for auction is a very rare 1977 Y81 W72 4-Speed Trans Am. This is one of only 384 Special Edition Trans Ams that came off the assembly line with the combination of: hardtop (Y81), high performance T/A 6.6 400 cu in Pontiac engine (W72) and 4-speed Borg Warner Super T-10 manual transmission (M21). Only approximately 14 of these rare birds are known to exist today.

This vehicle was delivered at Winkel Pontiac Buick GMC in Reno, Nevada. It is PHS documented with only 30,891 DMV certified miles on the odometer.

The paint on this car is new and in excellent condition. It is very straight. A repaint was necessary because sometime in its life the TA was repainted GTA gunmetal grey, presumably in the late 80's when the GTA popularized this color. It has GM licensed Phoenix Graphics and preformed striping. Amazingly, all four wheel spoilers, the chin spoiler, and even the front spoiler to lower front spoiler brackets are original to the car and molded in black plastic as they came from the factory. The floor and trunk pans are solid and original to the car.

The drivetrain on this vehicle has remained virtually unmolested all these years. The matching numbers 400 is bone stock with the exception of maintenance items and a high voltage Accel Supercoil. The transmission has correct matching VIN serial number, and shifts tight and smooth like a knife thorough butter. There are no leaks to speak of. The stock 3.23 rear end has been serviced with posi additive and runs quietly. The exhaust still retains its original catalytic converter, single exhaust, and dual tailpipes with dual chrome splitters. Some time in the past the transverse muffler has been upgraded to a Flowmaster in the stock location and configuration. The Flowmaster provides a great throaty exhaust tone while adding performance. With the exception of some under hood detailing, the undercarriage of the vehicle remains untouched. The chassis has the expected patina of a 36 year old car, however there has been no undercoating to hide anything.

The interior is original with the exception of new bucket seat upholstery, Clarion tape deck and a steering wheel upgrade. The steering wheel is a stock gold anodized wheel that has been covered in genuine hand stitched leather with 1/8" padding for that fat grip feel. The carpet, headliner, dash, console and door panels are factory original and in excellent condition with the exception of the headliner which had to be re-glued in spots.

This car runs and drives excellent, as good or better than off the showroom floor. There are the usual body squeaks and rattles typical of these unibody cars, but no knocks, ticks or smoke whatsoever.

Please direct all questions to the Q&A section below so questions can be answered and posted. This vehicle is sold as is.

Thank you for viewing my auction. Good luck and happy bidding.

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected

Tue, 20 May 2014

General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
